THE PRESIDENT: Well, thank you very much. I appreciate everybody coming in.

We had some very late nights getting the tax-cut bill to conference. Last was very smooth, and I think we’re going to make it so that it comes out very beautifully. I call it “the mixer.” It’s a conference where everyone gets together and they pick all the good things and get rid of the things they don’t like.

But it’s a fantastic bill for the middle class. It’s a fantastic bill for jobs and for companies wanting to bring back massive amounts of money into our country. It’s really — I view it more than anything else, is it’s a tremendous bill for jobs and for the middle class.

And I think people see that, and they’re seeing it more and more. And the more they learn about it, the more popular it becomes. And I think the end result will be even better. We had a choice — we could have gone directly for a vote, and we decided, though, let’s put it into the conference and let’s come out with something where everything is perfecto. And that’s what we’re going to do.

This group of wonderful Republican senators is here to discuss the tax bill — very important. And we’re also going to be talking about trade and NAFTA — what’s going on with the NAFTA negotiations. We have tremendous losses with Mexico and losses with Canada, and covered by NAFTA. Last year, we lost approximately $71 billion in trade deficit; we have a trade deficit with Mexico of $71 billion. With Canada, it was about $17 billion.

We have trade deficits with everybody. Virtually every country in the world we have trade deficits with. And that’s going to be changing — it’s already changing — but it’s going to be changing fast. We went to China; we brought back over $300 billion worth of contracts from Asia. It was a very successful trip.

But now we’re going to look at NAFTA very seriously. We have Bob Lighthizer here, we have Gary Cohn, and we’re already starting the negotiation. Not easy to have an election coming up, so we’ll see how that plays. But it’s going to be very successful.

So we’re going to be talking about trade, we’ll be talking about healthcare, we’ll be talking about other subjects. The taxes, we’re so thrilled about and so popular. And I think something is going to be coming out of conference pretty quickly, as opposed to long term. I think it’s going to go pretty quickly. We’re all on the same page. There’s a great spirit in the Republican Party like I’ve never seen before — like a lot of people have said they’ve never seen before. They’ve never seen anything like this, the unity.

So I think a lot of very good things are going to happen and it’s going to happen very fast. I want to thank you all for being here. And let’s have a great lunch, and let’s talk about trade. And let’s make great trade deals instead of the horrible trade deals that we all got stuck with.

Thank you very much. Thank you, everybody.

Q Mr. President, why did you decide to formally endorse Roy Moore?

THE PRESIDENT: I think he’s going to do very well. We don’t want to have a liberal Democrat in Alabama, believe me. We want strong borders, we want stopping crime. We want to have the things that we represent, and we certainly don’t want a liberal Democrat that’s controlled by Nancy Pelosi and controlled by Chuck Schumer. We don’t want to have that for Alabama.

I am surprised that Flake did not drop dead. Our President is good, no Teleprompter required, uh…uh…remember that guy who can’t say anything without teleprompter..uh..uh…A village in Kenya is missing its idiot.

At the 22 second mark Flake’s shoulders slump. He heard Trump’s message (get rid of the things we don’t like) and saw Trump’s eye on him. Defeat. Defeated. Look at his shoulders. (as far as I could tell, his shoulders only slumped at this time). Wonderful.

Considering that Jeff Flake made public that he was sending a $100 check today to Democrat Jones campaign in Alabama today, I’d say he deserves the hidden messaging. Flake tweeted, “country over party” with the picture of the check.

.@JeffFlake It's clear you've chosen the Fascist #Democrat Party over country. You'd rather give U.S.A. away to globalists, open borders & kill millions of the unborn. Now we know you for what you are… https://t.co/XDnQfCcYuU

Oh yes, you are right, SoCal Patriot: VERY clever of President Trump to seat backstabber Flake next to him.
Notice how Sen. Joni Ernst keeps her eyes respectfully on the President as he speaks. Notice how boor Flake never looks at the President as he speaks.
sundance has given us another memorable quote: “…the pine-cone-on-his-chair-look on Flake’s face is, well, priceless.”
Perfect and humorous description!
Now, everyone–whenever you see Jeff Flake, think of pine cone placement…

Wonder if Flake, who just posted a check he wrote to the Doug Jones campaign, will post the checks he wrote to the Clinton and Obama campaigns? Thank God we will soon have two new conservative senators from Arizona that will support President Trump.

So, who does he think he is impressing with that check? I guess we need to be grateful he is still a Repub for now for the majority….but it seems like he might be very close to switching parties….that would not be good for us.

What country is he talking about? The country that is being run by a criminal enterprise in the background. The enterprise that allowed four people in Benghazi to be murdered. The enterprise that shot an old rancher down in the snow because he complained about selling US assets to foreign interests.

To counteract the aptly named Flake, I sent money to Roy Moore. We should all do the same. I’m not an Alabama voter, but I’ve had it with the fake charges put out by lying skanks and their whore lawyers.

I must disagree. The cat that ate the canary looks happy. He looks more like the beagle you just caught crapping on the kitchen floor.

I am starting to suspect Trump is the source for all the info coming out about scum-bags. (News/Entertainment/Governance) He has the dirt on Flake and Flakes butt is so visibly puckered I wouldn’t be surprised if next time Flake hit the head he would crap a diamond.

He looked petrified.

A lot of stuff we don’t “know” about is going on. A lot of stuff going on off of deep state radar is going on. Lots and lots of info being collected.

I pity the Rinos and Dems for a sec, but then I break out in a massive BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

There is some talk on 4chan about 400+ indictments of Deep State people just waiting in the wings to be served by DOJ. Don’t know how reliable that stuff is, but it would certainly explain Sessions silence all this time. He would have to be running a shadow DOJ side-by-side with the “official” Rosenstein DOJ, on the QT, to do this. Silence is golden. We will see.

Now, I’m not begrudging anybody who makes a small donation to someone. Every bit helps and people should donate what they feel is appropriate for them. If someone donated $5 to President Trump because that’s all they could afford and their small part, I have a great admiration and respect for that.

This, however, is not *THAT*. This is him grand standing. If he really wanted to make a statement that check would say 10 grand.

Bluto, sometimes Trump is forthright and other times he just looks and those looks tell us a lot. Knows how to control the room and conversation just as a good leader should be doing. Flake’s face was a typical sour puss and being seated next to Trump had to be a very difficult seat for Flake but a great way for Trump to subtlely put down Flake. Our leader is a master in control, not disclosing what will happen, and so much more.

I’m re-watching now to see him do this. I missed it the first time.
And hoping to see a Scott Adams commentary on this as well.
I also need to go back and watch his TV shows. He has perfected the non-verbal.

Just look at how out of control Trump is in that meeting!! I mean it is so apparent he is unfit to serve! He’s obviously senile-I’m not even sure if he knows where he is. He has no business being in that room with someone as respectable and smartish as someone like Senator Flakey. I mean, when you see just how out of control and stupid this man is it is just terrifying to think he has his finger on the nuclear button.

Yes-I was totally being sarcastic and just forgot to add the /s. I do love the way everyone pounced on me though! LOL! I just think it is crazy-watching him, he is so obviously completely in control of EVERYTHING on such a high level. But I’m like that too when people start attacking our POTUS or God-forbid FLOTUS and don’t even get me started when they go after Barron! Mama Bear comes out!!!

If ANYONE didn’t get that they have a serious case of the dumbs. A+ in your comedy class. Heard they are looking for a replacement for Louis CK. 😉

I laughed out loud and my formerly sleeping cat actually farted audibly. I laughed again. Look on the cats face… Wish I had a picture to share. Think suspicious cat with a what in the hell is that smell nose furl.

I know exactly how you feel. I had to watch for EIGHT YEARS as Obama did the exact opposite of what is right for the country. And you, you poor bastard have to sit and watch as Trump gradually rights all the wrongs. Obviously you preferred the steady decline of the country. I am sure there must be a country out there somewhere you would like better than this one.
One that is already a shit hole with rampant crime and immigration that is more to your liking. I am sure there would be millions who would contribute to your moving.

ROTFL … Trump handles pressure like no one I’ve ever seen in my life. How many human beings can sit next to an enemy and act like it’s an ally, and present such a forceful image of getting things done to the world? He’s amazing.

NO NO NO grassely NOT until we get the citizens business done first!!!!
Pass Kate’s Law, Sanctuary Cities Act, Tax Cuts, Repeal obamacare, Infrastructure, PASS A DAMN BUDGET!!!!!!, ETC FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My take on Flake is that the R wing of the uniparty convinced Flake to step aside so they could hand the Senate to the D side of the uniparty to block Trump. Flake was on board with the scheme, but is now realizing that he backed a lame horse, that the Trump train has a full head of steam, and that he gave up his seat at the biggest American show in a century. “Oh my God! What have I done?” That’s my take.

Notice how PT looks at Joni Earnst when he says ” things they like”, and then turns to (my senator) Flake and says “things they do not like”. Pretty revealing ha? When is flake going over to the other side? Looks like pretty soon with the donation to commie Jones. Barf!

Joni, to Potus’s right … and as he speaks with a nod of recognition of what is “good and right and things we want to keep” … And Flake, to his left … With an exact reverse acknowledgment
All done so nonchalantly … 😁
TRUMP 🇺🇸

On a side note, Senator & retired Lt. Colonel Joni Ernst looked beautiful today. Proud of her.
Pretty good for a girl that worked at Hardees. ⭐

Trump is smart he usually has a woman seated next to him. When he had the sheriffs visit early in his term, to his left was a female. I’ve noticed that repeatedly. The media can’t get a ‘War on Woman’ rap on him because there are too many woman in pictures right next to him.

When Trump was running his companies, he’d sit at the table with true professionals, with people dedicated to their craft & with people who expected results. People bold in their idea’s & people who fused integrity with producing within financial perimeters

Now he sits with professional politicians, those who’ve shed their integrity & their moral duty in order to gain personal benefit, in order to game the system at the expense of those who placed them there

These Senatorial carpetbaggers must be squirming in their seats as they face the one man who actually works for & cares about the American people

They’re not used to dealing with bona fide honesty, integrity & honor, & I’m sure it’s uncomfortable for them

Hopefully in the very near future we give the Boss a few more people like the ones he’s used to dealing with

I realized something in looking at the first picture. I’m following Pres. Trump a lot, because I immediately knew where they were eating! I never before would have been able to pick out numerous rooms in the WH and West Wing other than the Oval Office with previous Presidents.

I loved what WTP’s President did to Flake-good riddance to him! I love WTP’s strategic table arrangements, I do not sense that Jody Ernest has WTP’s interests in mind. What am I missing here, fellow treepers?

Flake is a flake. In his first campaign for Senator (actually am not from Arizona, so correct me if it was also his only one), he told a Democrat political reporter that he was not really like a Republican – white men who hate brown people. She was disgusted and, although a Democrat, was quite happy that he is not running again. Heard her tell this little vignette on a local Tucson radio station approximately one month ago. Yes, Senator Snake, we conservatives are all racists, bigots, etc., etc., blah, blah, blah, but you, sir, are a liar, a deceiver and a truly despicable excuse for a human being. Soros funded?

President Obama never held these types of meetings, for the press or for people in Congress. even the congressional black caucus complained that they never met with him. President Trump uses them very effectively. But I disagree that Flake was on the hot seat. This was a reminder that EVERYONE ELSE is on the hot seat.

Soon-to-be-Ex Senator Flake considers himself aristocracy, being in the direct line of the man who founded the LDS town of–get this–Snowflake! LOL! When I first heard that, I thought it was a joke.

So, the Senator feels it’s beneath him to be around the bold New Yorker. He likely gets apoplexy whenever he reads that many of President Trump’s supporters believe God placed the President in office to bring our nation back from the brink. Thus his look of great discomfort.

Finally watched the video and contrary to a number of comments there is no hot seat. Flakey is where he is so PDJT can show the world who Flakey is. PDJT lets us know right from the start. Looking at Joni he says”pick all the good things”. Turning to Fakey saying “get rid of the things they dont like”.

Arriving late, someone already mentioned the Flakey colonostopy so I will add Flakey constipation. The eyes on Flakey remind me of a school boy getting a long slow talking to (as sis Joni looks on with a big beautiful grin). Joni looks like she needs some popcorn.🍿
